Dog Sitting Keyport

About: I've cared for dogs almost all of my life. As a latchkey kid, my first job was to care for my two sweet dogs when I got home. I'm skilled in caring for senior dogs who need extra patience and love. ❤️ I'm available in the mornings to early afternoons. I work part-time in the evenings most nights. I am as flexible as my job schedule allows me to be! Sending photo and video updates are my favorite, so you can always see your pets! I currently live in a pet free household with a fenced in yard. I do not smoke. I'm a thorough cleaner if needed.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and currently have two dogs of my own. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As an active person who enjoys walking and being outdoors, I can provide energetic walks for dogs who need exercise while also giving gentle attention to senior dogs who prefer a slower pace. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet with someone else, and I’ll provide updates and photos so you know they’re in great hands. I’m a stay-at-home mom of two school-aged children and am looking for flexible work that allows me to care for pets during school hours. My schedule is open on weekdays while my children are in school, and for certain walks or drop-in visits, my kids may accompany me when appropriate. I’m reliable, active, and love spending time outdoors with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I currently have two friendly dogs of my own and treat every pet as if they were part of my family. I follow owners' instructions carefully, prioritize safety on walks and during visits, and provide regular updates with photos for peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I have dogs all my life, and adore animals. I am truly happier around animals, and keeping them company and safe while having fun as well. I am available on the weekends to take care of your pup and make sure they have the best time while their parents have a mini vacay. I have a big fenced yard where your pup is able to run around freely, and a cute little cute friendly Yorkie to keep your pup company.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and two years ago I worked with a dog-sitting company—a truly rewarding experience. I love being surrounded by these four-legged friends, and I have a natural ability to communicate with them. I am currently off for the summer, but starting in September, I will be mostly available after 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and throughout the weekends. In my home, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for every pet. We’ve recently added a secure fence to our extra-large backyard so visiting pups now have a spacious, supervised play area to run, explore, and burn off energy. In addition, I make sure dogs stay active and engaged with daily walks around the neighborhood, tailored to their age and energy level. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and walks—so they feel comfortable and cared for in their familiar space. My goal is always to provide consistency, safety, and lots of loving attention, whether I’m hosting your pet or caring for them in your home.

“Stephanie was able to help us in such a loving way with our two cats. She was responsive and very loving and caring will definitely hire her back.”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was a little kid. I have experience caring for elderly and sick dogs who require oral medication, assistance walking, other medications, and 24/7 care (overnight potty breaks, overnight feedings, etc). I have 1 dog currently but have had as many as 3 dogs living in my house at once. I am home/remote full-time, so I am available to give your pet around the clock attention, care, and (most importantly) cuddles! I am away from my home for errands for 3 hours at a time at most (during the daytime, daily) and have tons of both cat and dog toys at home to keep your pet entertained while I am away. I am also available for walks all day, and have a fenced-in yard for additional play time. I have a fenced-in yard with a large backyard to accommodate all the zoomies at all times of the day. I also have a crate if needed for your pet. I have 1 dog and 4 cats that are all pet-friendly and will keep your fur babies entertained all day long. I allow pets on all furniture, and love to spend my day surrounded by my animals. I have lots of time and attention and LOVE to spoil your babies with!

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and my genuine love for caring for them. I've had dogs my whole life, so I'm comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I provide dependable, attentive care and make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it's keeping up with an energetic puppy, maintaining routines, or giving extra patience and attention to senior dogs, I treat every pet as if they were my own! Getting that exercise is also apart of my routine, my schedule can be pretty flexible with mornings or nights multiple times a week!! Love walking When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. During walks, I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and safe outdoor time. For drop-in visits, I provide fresh water, feeding if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. I always treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: Hi! My name is Morgan and I am a college student. I have a half Belgian Malinois-German Sheppard named Juno and she is 11! I have loved animals my whole life and trying to make some extra money before I go back to college! My dog is a handful and I have dog sat my whole life growing up, from Shih Tzu’s and Maltese to German shepherds, I love dogs all ages and sizes. I am home from college, so I have a lot of time on my hands. I play basketball in college so I love to stay active and go on walks. my dog walks between 7 to 8 miles a day, goes to the park every day, and eats only the best food. She has a strict routine that my family follows and I see how much it has benefited her as she gets older.

“Lauren was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of my cat while I was away on vacation. She sent me updates and pictures every visit and was so patient with my shy kitty who spent her first few visits hiding. They ultimately became best buds which made me feel so much better about being away. I would definitely recommend Lauren and would definitely have her again!”

I like to bring these same principles into my clients homes as well, therefore, making sure your dog gets enough physical and mental activity is a top priority.

About: Hi, I'm Ashlee! 🐾 Thank you for stopping by my profile! I know choosing someone to care for your pet is a big decision because they're so much more than "just a dog", they're family. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and cared for every step of the way. I offer: 🐶 Dog boarding 🏡 House sitting 🚶 Dog walking 🦴 Drop-in visits Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, sticking to a routine, or simply relaxing on the couch, I'll tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I share my home with my Mini Bernedoodle, Finnley, who has taught me just how unique every dog can be. Caring for him has shown me the importance of patience, consistency, positive reinforcement, and paying attention to the little things that help a dog feel safe and at home. I'm also comfortable with: 💊 Administering oral medications 🐾 Caring for puppies, adult dogs, and seniors ❤️ Providing individualized care based on your pet's routine and needs Communication is one of my top priorities. You'll receive regular photo and video updates throughout your booking, along with prompt responses if you ever want to check in. I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Whether your pet is staying overnight, going for a walk, or just needs a drop-in visit while you're at work, I'll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I'd want someone to give Finnley. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! If you have any questions or would like to schedule a meet and greet, don't hesitate to reach out. I can't wait to meet you both 🐶❤️ Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine because I have my own Mini Bernedoodle, Finnley! My schedule naturally revolves around walks, feeding times, playtime, enrichment, and making sure he gets plenty of attention throughout the day. When caring for your pet, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether that means sticking to a specific feeding schedule, providing regular potty breaks, going on walks, or simply spending quality time together, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I carefully plan my schedule around the pets I'm caring for and always make their safety, comfort, and well-being my top priority. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I believe the best care starts with getting to know each pet as an individual, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, favorite activities, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to make their time with me feel as familiar and stress-free as possible. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll follow their normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I use positive reinforcement, patience, and gentle handling to help pets feel comfortable and build trust. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would my own, keeping everything clean, secure, and just as you left it. I also know how important communication is, so you can expect regular photo and video updates throughout your pet's stay, along with prompt responses if you have any questions or would like to check in. Whenever possible, I like to schedule a complimentary meet and greet before a first booking. It's a great opportunity for us to get to know each other, discuss your pet's routine and needs, and make sure everyone feels comfortable before their stay. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, relaxed pet and to feel completely confident that they were cared for like family.

“Thanks so much to Jill for caring for our two fur babies while we were out of town. All of the updates and pictures she shared helped us to feel very comfortable leaving our kitties and home in her care.”

About: I've been an animal lover my whole life and treat every pet as if they were my own. I had the time of my life with my sweet girl, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge last year.
